Using Windows, Xbox, and iPod as alternative MythTV front ends

Has anyone compared the power consumption of various platforms for front-end and/or back-end use?
How does the Xbox 360 compare with Apple-TV for instance? The early 360 ran hot enough to have very high failure rates, it takes power to make all that heat. Hopefully the later one uses much less power.
Has someone here got one of those Kill-a-Watt meters to check the power use?

It may seem silly to ask about power, but besides the cost of it, we should all do our part to reduce global warming.
